I'm never really sure if statements like that are truly ironical, or if they actually believe that. I once made a few charts which were obviously making fun of Elliot wave theorists. But then people took them seriously. After some back-and-forths, with me publishing progressively weirder charts (logarithmic horizontal axis ftw!), it seemed to become clear Tongue
I nowadays just stay out of the hair of predictors and wave theorists. It's better for all involved.

Yep, fully agree with you. I used to make what I believed were witty and smart, though markably sarcastic remarks all the time. It never failed, I was always misunderstood, the point I was making as irony was taken literally and overall I didn't make many new friends... so yeah, better to just stay clear of zealots and die-hard educators. But there are still many that parse the "fun" posts and actually use them to the benefit of everyone, and S3052 is one such person, so not all is lost yet.

it goes up, unless it goes down?

No no, you got it all wrong. It goes up, unless it happens to go below a certain minimum. This is not foretelling, this is analysis.
potato/potato. the only thing that S3052 can predict that i don't, is the tripping points..

And your irony detection is apparently as good as your tripping point prediction Wink

wow, right, I read October for some reason... Well, was it sold? Still available? Price shipped to EU?
905  Economy / Goods / Re: Gaming Computer - Older - $130 SHIPPED on: November 29, 2011, 10:03:00 PM
Ok, nevermind then. I don't think shipping the whole thing to Europe would be easy or economical, and I really only need the OS. Thanks anyway.
906  Economy / Goods / Re: Gaming Computer - Older - $130 SHIPPED on: November 29, 2011, 09:57:45 PM
How much for windows (do you have the full box?) with physical media and license, shipped to EU?
907  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS]Brand New OEM Windows XP Professional SP3 6BTC on: November 29, 2011, 09:41:50 PM
Is that shipped to EU?
908  Economy / Goods / Re: Gaming Computer - Older - $130 SHIPPED on: November 29, 2011, 09:40:24 PM
Is the windows 7 OEM or retail? If the latter I'd be interested...
909  Economy / Services / Re: Trusted members and The Escrow League on: November 28, 2011, 03:34:15 PM

well, i'm an individual, who happens to be a designer/programmer Smiley   ...but i get your point, you want the human element whereas sites like mine are designed to be automated.


Hmmm, yes and no. I have no quarrel with the automated interface, my issue is with the lack of obvious connection to you. It's your service, not yourself, although the difference is only important because you aren't mentioned anywhere on the service's pages that I could find. It might be moot, and I'll be happy to add you to the list (which I'm not sure has served anyone to date), sometimes I'm dense this way.
910  Economy / Services / Re: Trusted members and The Escrow League on: November 28, 2011, 03:15:26 PM

hi nelisky, i know i'm not on your list, but for those that know me, there is now one more option: http://thrucoin.com


Hey. That's great, the more the better. This particular thread is for individuals willing to escrow, but I certainly appreciate the information.
911  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Is this the normal Bitcoin attitude? on: November 18, 2011, 10:11:49 AM

Have I missed something in the past few years - is this "attitude" towards customers is the new norm or is this just a Bitcoin thing?

Neither. I've had nothing but really polite and helpful replies to all my queries and, yes, complaints on the services I use.

You mention a single email thread from a single company, if I understand correctly. That being the case then in fact you have fully understood what the real moto of bitcoin talks around here are: be quick to complain and criticize, generalize as much as possible and hide all helpful specifics. It's a shame, but that's the trend with people pasting full articles without mentioning where they come from, speaking of 'that individual' or 'that company' as if everyone that would match that description were to blame for everything.

Anyway, just restating my point, the bitcoin commercial community has shown nothing but great skill at professionally handling all the requests I've put forward thus far, sorry you didn't have the same experience.
912  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Guy admits it is his job to destroy Bitcoin. on: November 17, 2011, 10:01:32 AM
On a recent survey about Bitcoin I found a person who admitted that it's his job to destroy Bitcoin within a team of people, probably to protect the current financial system:

Good!

"[...] we will not be content until Bitcoin has been driven completely underground to a very small amount of fanatics with no chance of taking off into the main stream financial world."

And that's where the feet shooting begins. By limiting the system to the fanatic and well educated (on the system) few, without coming up with a better alternative to the already broken system that got the masses to be going through huge ordeals, what this does in the end is show a viable alternative, a light at the end of the tunnel if you will, to the people that are forced to use a system they don't trust or want.

Microsoft was all about 'embrace and extend' which is actually the only way I see bitcoin be at danger right now. By simply dismissing it or trying to show all that is wrong with it will simply make the system stronger and more reliable... for when the time is right Smiley

If I can buy a ring of bitcoin, and propose to my girlfriend with it, then bitcoin is like gold.  If I can't, then your argument fails.

This is just plain wrong, in the karmic sense of the word! Bitcoins are about freedom, why would you use then to help you tie the knot?

Wrong, wrong, wrong... now I have to take a long shower and scrub myself clean.
914  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] Macbook pro 15" Core 2 Duo on: November 13, 2011, 08:39:53 PM
My common running joke here on these posts is: "You are American, right?".

But what I really want to say is where are you shipping from and will you ship to Europe?
915  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS]16GB HP Touchpad - $110 Shipped on: November 13, 2011, 08:37:42 PM
I will buy it if you ship first. The last time I paid first and never got it.

I will also use Inaba (assuming he is willing) as escrow if you would like.

Shipping will be to Kansas City Missouri.

If Inaba isn't willing or not trusted by both sides, have a look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=37805.0 where some old time forum members, most of them very trustworthy stepped forward and will help you with the escrow part (some for a fee).
916  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS]16GB HP Touchpad - $110 Shipped on: November 12, 2011, 10:29:24 AM
Pictures? Shipping to Europe would be how much more, if possible?

I assume you take bitcoins?
917  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: FPGA development board "Icarus " for mining purpose on: November 10, 2011, 05:58:38 PM
So when can we expect to be able to order this ? :p
918  Economy / Goods / Re: [WTS] LEGIT Windows Vista Home Basic & Windows 7 Home Premium CD Keys on: November 06, 2011, 02:52:04 AM
Do you have the actual physical media to match? I'm assuming you are selling keys from boxed products, not OEM versions bundled with PCs (you did say legal, right?)
919  Economy / Goods / Re: [SOLD] iPhone 4 16gb black complete w/ box and new accessories 115BTC shipped on: November 04, 2011, 01:58:36 PM

And I would have bought it here, but I want one that is free from cell provider locks (not just soft unlocked). Is yours locked too?

Yes, but being an A&TT customer for over 5 years, I can have them unlock it in a matter of minutes. I travel international alot, they see that from my account

Ok, do you want to open a separate thread, so others have the opportunity to outbid me? Assuming the phone is in very good condition, not locked to a carrier and I can allow for Apple's automatic upgrades without locking the phone, I'll bid $300, shipped to Europe, in BTC. I will want to see pictures first, though Smiley
920  Economy / Goods / Re: [SOLD] iPhone 4 16gb black complete w/ box and new accessories 115BTC shipped on: November 04, 2011, 08:54:58 AM
Sold. 

For how much?

I have the same phone and conditions, wanna sell it on the forums as well

Thanks!
